Reading the first few pages of this thread from a year ago, compared to the most current few pages, are amazing.

I hope everyone back then stuck with it, and made huge profits. This is where I post the obligatory F me for not getting in on this a year ago.

Campbx has stopped doing wire transfers and ACH's too and from the site. I guess their bank got spooked with all the recent negative news about bitcoins. I got about $700 sitting there. Probably just wait for them to resolve it, since I don't feel like paying $20 for a USPS money order.

Had a 7950 fan die. Got a refund via Amazon (it was under warranty from sapphire still) and picked up an R9 280x. This thing is a beast. Hashes at 750 kh/s with a massive undervolt. Did a few more tweaks and got my Gigabyte 7950 running at 675kh/s which is pretty damn good for a 7950.

Been dabbling with multicoin pools over the last month. Really liking how easy it is and they consistently deliver more than just mining LTC would.

Really great Joe Rogan podcast with Andreas Antonopoulos that answered a lot of questions I had about the legitimacy of digital currencies.

FUCKING MTGOX. Last transaction was on 12/18 had roughly 190 in cash in my wallet. Stopped messing around since I hadn't been verified yet. After almost two monthes of waiting account got verified on 1/13. Didn't rush on to play with my coins/cash or move them. Just logged in to see a series of transactions on 1/25 that cleared my account. Fucking shitty.

Mt Gox apparently got taken down last night due to an increase in withdrawal activity.

Good god man... 750K from the 1 GPU? That's got to be the best bang for the buck right now.

Yea I'm pretty pleased with the ASUS R9 280X -- runs cool and quiet. I could push this thing to 800KH/s if I wanted to, but I'm running both cards inside a closed conventional case so the heat dissipation just isn't going to happen. Inside the closed case, they're running at 73c and 75c which is amazing for 1.4MH/s on those cards.

I'm also digging thisBetarigs - Cryptocurrency cloud miningthing. I put my rig up for rent at a favorable price and it was snapped up almost instantly. If someone rents my rig (via the site), my rig will detect the active rent and switch to that job for time specified, then switch back to my normal pool lineup. Its second job is about to start which will carry it through the night. Hopefully the people on there continue to be greedy (asking for more than 25 percent profit over accessible multipools) so I keep getting work.
